Bollard Types and Applications
Bollards are often used for added curb protection to prevent vehicles from entering unauthorized areas. Bollard posts protect pedestrians and architectural elements by providing a visible barrier for sensitive areas. It is common to see a series of parking bollards out in front of important buildings with high traffic or in road areas where pedestrians need to stop while waiting for traffic. Depending on their use, your choice of bollard will vary. In some cases, where protection is most crucial, they may be made of steel or concrete. In other cases, they are made of highly flexible recycled plastic material which are meant to bend rather than break if struck by motor vehicles.
